Caitlyn Jenner: ‘It’s Totally Fair’ for Trans Men to Compete in Women’s Sports

‘If the Olympic committee thinks it is fair, I’m fine with it’
By Grabien Staff

RUSH EXCERPT:

JENNER: "The Olympic committee is way ahead of identifying transgender issues and competing. Women had saliva test, to make sure they were female. We had the East German women and the Soviet women and all that kind of stuff. Well, since then, there has been a lot of gender nonconforming, we don't know where they fit into the athletic world and the Olympic committee has done 20 years of studies on issues of hormone levels of whether you need gender confirmation surgery -- what can you do as a trans person to be able to compete as your authentic self-. They've come up with guidelines. This woman met the guidelines... Yes, it is totally fair. If the Olympic committee thinks it is fair, I'm fine with it. There is no issue, you know, no big advantage."
